If you ever push the mag release in the dark thinking that it was the safety, you'll know why it was changed.:)
Apparently that's exactly the sort of thing that happened too.
Is it hard to put the push buttons into a carbine with a switch selector? After dark I use a mod 37 shotgun with a hastings barrel for nighttime disscussions....Charlie
I answered in another post. Easy switch. I went tot flip.
Nothing. They should have left them just like this. The troops on the ground however would have expressed their opinions no doubt !. A 5 Digit. Mike.Attachment 23595Attachment 23594
Re, the flip sight- The one on my 1944 Winchester won't work enless the carbine's action is "cocked". Is the way it's supposed to work? TIA.

Mike,
Not just a push safety, but a checkered one at that, nice.
I agree with Mike. I like the look alot better then the rotary. I have never had an issue here at home with a push safety. Having said that, the one I carried in Viet Nam had a rotary safety. It's easy to say now that it would not have been an issue in a heated situation. But being mine was rotary then I can't say it would have been or not.

I've dropped a few mags over the years because of the push safety. But I still like them the best and have them on most of my carbines. I fact I always have problems remembering what is on and what is off with the late safety. Bill
On a rotary safety I have, it has that funny looking S post war marking on both sides. One side is overstamped with a "N". Safe, not safe? Of course still wouldn't be helpful at night.
